Comparison of inflammatory markers in induced and spontaneous sputum in a cohort of COPD patients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-11-15)Background: Sputum induction is a non-invasive method for obtaining measurements of inflammation in the airways. Whether spontaneously sampled sputum can be a valid surrogate is unknown. The aim of this study was to compare ... -
Comparison of Iterative Solvers for Non-Symmetric Linear Systems in Porous Media Problems
(Master thesis, 2014-09-02)We investigate the performance of the IDR(s)-algorithms when solving nonsymmetric systems in porous media problems. We derive a mathematical model for the flow in porous media, and discretized this with the method known ... -
A comparison of Langmuir turbulence parameterizations and key wave effects in a numerical model of the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Five different parameterizations of Langmuir turbulence (LT) effect are investigated in a realistic model of the North Atlantic and Arctic using realistic wave forcing from a global wave hindcast. The parameterizations ... -
A Comparison of LiDAR and Radiosonde Wind Measurements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Doppler LiDAR measurements are already well established in the wind energy research and their accuracy has been tested against met mast data up to 100 m above ground. However, the new generation of scanning LiDAR have a ... -
Comparison of magnitude-sensitive sequential sampling models in a simulation-based study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Modelling plays a key role in explaining data in psychology and neuroscience and helps elucidate neural computations. Recent observations of magnitude-sensitivity (i.e. sensitivity to overall magnitudes and magnitude ... -
Comparison of membrane proteins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and H37Ra strains
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-24)Background: The potential causes for variation in virulence between distinct M. tuberculosis strains are still not fully known. However, differences in protein expression are probably an important factor. In this study we ... -
A comparison of men and women undergoing septoplasty—the Swedish national septoplasty register
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Objective: Men represent more than two-thirds of septoplasty patients in many studies, but differences between men and women in terms of patient selection or outcome are seldom reported. This study aims to investigate ... -
Comparison of metamorphic evolution and tectonic position of metasediments of the Austevoll islands with rocks from the Samnanger Complex (Major Bergen Arc, Norwegian Caledonides)
(Master thesis, 2015-08-01)Metasedimentary rocks represent a substantial component of the Bergen Arcs System and they are mostly confined to the Minor and Major Bergen Arcs. The arcs represents imbricate structures composed of island arc lithologies, ... -
Comparison of methods for finding the capacitance of a supercapacitor
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A carbon-based supercapacitor is usually associated with a capacitance such that the user can access its ability to store electrical charge. Three different measurement methods or variations thereof are typically employed ... -
A comparison of Monte Carlo sampling methods for metabolic network models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Reaction rates (fluxes) in a metabolic network can be analyzed using constraint-based modeling which imposes a steady state assumption on the system. In a deterministic formulation of the problem the steady state assumption ... -
Comparison of Multivendor Single-Voxel MR Spectroscopy Data Acquired in Healthy Brain at 26 Sites
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: The hardware and software differences between MR vendors and individual sites influence the quantification of MR spectroscopy data. An analysis of a large data set may help to better understand sources of the ... -
Comparison of nutritional risk screening with NRS2002 and the GLIM diagnostic criteria for malnutrition in hospitalized patients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Nutritional risk screening, to identify patients at risk of malnutrition, is the first step in the prevention and treatment of malnutrition in hospitalized patients, and should be followed by a thorough nutritional assessment ... -
Comparison of OpenMP and Threading Building Blocks for expressing parallelism on shared-memory systems
(Master thesis, 2011-02-01)The thesis offers a comparison of OpenMP and Intel Threading Building blocks. The two are threading packages used to express parallelism in programs. In addition, the thesis presents a promising scalable algorithm for ... -
Comparison of Otolith Microstructure of Herring Larvae and Sibling Adults Reared Under Identical Early Life Conditions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-03)Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus) is a euryhaline species, occupying fully marine habitats (35 psu) in the North Atlantic, as well as brackish waters (<20 psu) such as in the adjacent Baltic Sea. We co-reared Atlantic ... -
A Comparison of p53 Isoform Profiles and Apoptosis Induced by Camptothecin or a Herbal Khat Extract (Catha Edulis (Vahl) Forssk. ex Endl.) in Leukemic Cell Lines: Exploring Cellular Responses in Therapy Development
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Khat (Catha edulis (Vahl) Forssk. ex Endl.) is habitually used as a natural stimulant by millions of people, but is associated with adverse effects on gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and central neural systems. At the ... -
